GCstar - Using a barcode scanner

All versions of GCstar can support a barcode scanner that behaves as a keyboard and enters the code as if it was entered using a keyboard. Starting with GCstar 1.6.2, there is an import plugin that can be used to do so in batch mode (i.e. entering many items, one after the other). This doesn’t fully work for all kinds of collections, because it requires a plugin that supports fetching the information from a website. If you know of such a website that is not yet supported by GCstar, don’t hesitate to report it in the forums.
